I've reviewed the ADU rules on some of the different city's websites, now I realize how much variance there is just within the county...For example, Santee has a new owner occupancy requirement that will go into effect on any ADU's permitted after 2024 and a strict no STR policy, La Mesa on the other hand seems really ADU friendly.Does anyone here have recommendations on which cities in SD county to avoid and which to explore for ADU's?

When I did my early high level due diligence it looked to me like they weren't issuing any new permits, but I would love to be wrong on that.I do know, having just stayed there in an airbnb, that even for existing permits the rules are extremely strict.
